I'll try to be as accurate as possible with this two samples. The one on top is the original edited with PSCS4. The other one printed with Canon Pixma MP500, photo scanned with same printer, looks just like the real thing.
How in the world is this huge difference in color, skin tone, etc?
Please help!!
Best regards

Could be Satan's evil coming through the page some how :) But more likely an issue with...

Monitor not calibrated correctly
Printer faulty
Poor profile
Incorrect settings

Also you can try and clean the registry, apparently if you have downloaded an application that uses print functions in the past it can be uninstalled yet still hijacking your print prefs.

Do you use print preview in the Canon driver?

Red River paper has a bulletin that specifies print preview should be turned off for Canon and Epson printers in Photoshop. When I leave it on in CS3 my prints come out too red. They look perfect when I turn off preview.

I haven't try it with CS5 as yet.
